Set in the stunning surroundings of the Union Borders Showgroud, the BMF Kelso Bikefest is a weekend long gathering of likeminded bike fans, with live music and entertainment, displays, more than 50 trade stands and of course, the highly anticipated Best In Show display. 

For the full BMF experience, why not bring your tent and camp for the weekend? There's plenty of entertainment being laid on for the campers, with  three live bands playing on Friday and Saturday nights. Live music and bikes - what more could you ask for?

As well as the live entertainment there's also a separate Blues Bar with real ales and live Blues music on Saturday and Sunday, Crazy Club Games, and exciting performances by Steve "Mr Showtime" Colley and the FX Stunt Team in the main arena. 

This year's not-to-be-missed Best in Show under canvas features nearly 50 entries - including customs, vintage, supersportsm, trikes and more. 

The show opens to campers from 14.00 on Friday 6th July, with day visitors welcome from 09.00 – 17.00 on Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th.
